places it in the Windows Clipboard. You can then paste the screen

 

 

 

 

 

shot into a document and print it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Operator keys

Several keys are always used with at least one other key: Ctrl, Alt,

 

 

 

 

 

and Shift. When held down with another key, the Ctrl (Control)

 

 

 

 

 

and Alt (Alternate) keys offer another way to give commands. For

 

 

 

 

 

example, in many applications, instead of choosing the Save

 

 

 

 

 

command from a menu, you can hold down Ctrl and press S

 

 

 

 

 

(referred to as Ctrl+S). The Shift key operates the same way as on

 

 

 

 

 

a typewriter; it is used to produce capital letters or special symbols

 

 

 

 

 

such as @ and $.
